A PARTY atmosphere filled Bournemouth town centre this weekend as Bourne Free was celebrated.
The annual Pride parade took place on Saturday, filling the streets with a dazzling display of rainbow colours. The roadsides were packed with people watching the procession, which celebrated the diverse LGBTQ+ community.

A wide array of organisations, charities, groups, and individuals took part including Dorset and Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service, Dorset Police, and South Western Ambulance Service, all of which decorated their vehicles in rainbow colours specially for the event. Rubyz, Space Youth Project, Communi-T, Yellow Buses and Morebus also had floats in the parade.

The celebrations continued after the parade, with free family entertainment and stalls in the Lower Gardens until 4.30pm, and live music and entertainment for over 18s in the Triangle.
Acts including Dane Bowers, MC Big Ben, S Club, Artful Dodger, Brandon Block, Michelle Heaton, Courtney Act, and Sam Callahan performed.
